How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Enter NMFC 128460, Class 60 on the BOL and label each piece with weight, dimensions, and a clear Center of Gravity mark for safe handling.
- Mount the housing or table to a heavy-duty skid using through‑bolts and steel strapping; add blocking under feet and cross-bracing to prevent shift or tip.
- Protect machined faces with VCI wrap or rust inhibitor, cover with plywood caps, and guard protruding studs or openings with edge protectors or thread caps.
- Confirm lift requirements before pickup—forks rated for the load or crane appointment—and choose LTL for skidded, liftable units or flatbed/open-deck for oversize pieces.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Fixed Class 60 delivers predictable rating and tighter quote accuracy for heavy mill components.
- Clear item-specific classification reduces reclass fees, damage claims, and schedule delays.
- Non‑hazmat status simplifies documents and widens carrier options for industrial lanes.
- Skid-mounted, lift-ready units speed dock turns and lower handling costs across multi-stop moves.
